Chain eccentric adjuster screw M 12x1.25, 31Nm (+/-5% tolerance)
GREASE Shell HDX2
Torque sequence 1-2-1

33Nm

tighten one up then the other, then go back and do them again so as to make sure they are both done up correctly.

The bolt heads are 14mm. The thread is M12 x 1.25.

Aha! That'll be my simple engineering practice of referring to bolts by their head sizes

That's strange. I got my number from my 998R workshop manual.

Why would there be a discrepancy btw the torque numbers for the 748 and the 998?
